• Photosmart HP 6520: Print only on half a page

  Recently out of no where the my printer suddenly started to only print Word or PDF documents on half of the paper from the printer. By the half of the book, I mean that the checks were printed as if the print settings are to adapt to several pages (probably 2) per sheet of paper. I checked my print settings and it is always configured to print 1 page per side, and then to return along the long double-sided printing side. I also made sure that the paper size defined in the print settings associated with the size of the paper, I use actually in the printer. I tried to reset my printer and my computer, but doesn't seem to work. Any help is appreciated thank you.

  You can follow this thread of Shane, who will show you how.

  After that, you can try printing again from Excel.

• Photosmart b109n cannot print in color black

  I have a Photosmart b109n. I tried to print a bunch of images and half of the images was good, but the other half was very strange. As you know a printer when it prints a picture, it makes all the colours of yellow, magenta and cyan, even in the dark. My printer can print colors perfectly but cannot print black parts on the image. It's a gray a little something. Here's an example of what it's like (the grey parts had to be black):

  My mystery is now solved. My statement was false, that the printer uses the black cartridge when it is printing photos. So the real problem was that the black ink cartridge.

• Photosmart Plus B210a print or copy black

  My B210a Photosmart more to print or copy in black mode 'Copy' or 'Print PC'. Black cartridge is almost new and has worked for 2 weeks; color cartridges are between 25% and 33% of ink left. Colors will be printed, and there is no error message. Wireless printer works from a PC with Windows Vista.

  Help, please.

  Hi, if the printer is on a thing of warranty that may be worth soaking the print head...

  (1) get a pan and put 1/2 "of very hot (not boiling) water in the bottom.
  (2) remove all ink cartridges, then remove the print head Assembly.
  (3) gently put the printhead nozzles down in water and soak for 5 minutes.
  (4) remove the print head and gently dry the electrical contacts.
  (5) replace the print head in the printer and then reinstall the ink cartridges.

• Photosmart HP 6520: printer is set for photos and cannot print from Web sites

  My printer setting have been changed and now I can't print anything a website (as a receipt, return labels etc.) because the printer thinks it is photo printing. I see what I want to print in the preview before printing, but when I push PRINT a box appears that says:

  LIBRARY name XPS save as XPS Document type and I get two choices to click on... Save or cancel.

  I can print whatever it is normally my WORD program. I can't find information on the parameters in the booklet that came with the printer and I can't figure out how to change the setting back.

  Thanks for your help.

  Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

  Reference - you need to have first installed the software of complete functionality on your computer for the printer:

  General instructions to install the software of the printer 6520

  =====================================================

  I checked both browsers: Firefox and Internet Explorer 11.

  The following can help:

  Firefox

  Click file > print >

  Examine the drop-down list, you should see the options (list), the choice to select your printer - make sure that you do not select the 'fax' >

  Ok

  -------------------------------------------------------------

  Internet Explorer

  Click file > print

  Under Select printer >

  The options appear one after the other, XPS Document writer is one of them, your printer must be another > select your printer, and then click print

  -------------------------------------------------------------

  If you accidentally "disconnected" position your printer as the default printer, the following should help bring back:

  Control Panel > display icon > devices and printers > one click with the right button on your printer >

  Select Set as default printer

  -------------------------------------------------------------

• Photosmart 6520 print not in black after I installed the new cartridge.

  Thanks to YouTube, I have set the printer. The screen under the black cartridge has been blocked. He just needs cleaning.

• Photosmart HP 6520 - print in color, not black and white

  I have had this printer for some time and configure options so that it used only the black cartridge unless I put it specifically to do otherwise when I wanted to color.  It worked well and I could switch between black and white and color very easily.  A few weeks ago, the printer started to ignore the options I would set and printed in color.  I double checked the parameters, and the printer is always set up for black and white, but now it completely ignores and still print in color.

  I tried the settings at the time of printing, and that indicates that the image in black and white, it still prints in color.

  I haven't added any software or made any changes to my pc.

  Can someone help me with this, please?

  Hi Lulu and thank you for the reply!

  I suggest to download and run the HP print and Scan doctor.  Once you have run the tool successfully, try again the configuration in black and white.

  Please let me know the results.

• Photosmart HP 6520 - printing black ink does not after having been replaced

  I replaced all 4 cartridges in my printer and tried to print a form, but the black ink is not printing. Thinking perhaps that I bought a defective cartridge, I bought another but I'll always have the same problem. It's the first time that I had to replace my cartridges (remained originals in French - printer was purchased in December). I've never had problems before printing. Please help... desperately need my printer to work!

• Photosmart 6520: Printer only printing partial photo

  Some of my photos Print OK on paper HP Advanced, but in some cases (well, one in particular) that part of the image is printed.  The amount of the picture that prints varies each time, but in all cases, the document presented by the photo tray is followed by a bunch of jumbled nonsense that prints on plain A4 paper.  You can see in the attached picture.

  I don't know if it's of any relevance, but I edited this particular image in Photoshop elements 13.

  

  Thank you very much

  How is the printer connected?  The problem you are experiencing seems to be a problem of communication between the computer and the printer.  If the printer is connected by a wireless LAN in the here document troubleshooting steps can help.  Print HP and the doctor http://www.hp.com/go/tools Scan may also help to identify interference problems.

  The fact that the problem occur at different places on the sons of page believe me it not related to the image or how it was edited.  It might be interesting to save the image to a memory card and that plug directly into the printer and try to print from there.

• Photosmart HP 6520 printer: hp photosmart 6520 cannot set print at 100% scale/size

  What CD jewel box impression label width and higth suddenly became smaller. It works perfectly until recently. Have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer and drivers, but I am unable to find how re set the scale to 100%. in this hp6520 Photosmart printer.

  Any help would be appreciated: very happy smiley:

  After watching your @dlddemonscreenshots, I see that you use the HPDD896C (HP Photosmart 6520 series), it is a driver not driver HP class.

  I suggest all first to remove this driver and add the printer again. In fact, I suggest to use the following steps to remove the printer from the device and printers and the driver from the properties of the server.

  1. in the folder "devices and printers".

  2. choose "print server properties.

  • Win XP - with no printer selected, click 'File' then 'server properties '.
  • Windows Vista - with no printer selected, press 'Alt' and then click 'file' then 'server properties '.
  • Windows 7/8, 8.1 and 10 - select any printer in the "Devices and printers" folder and click on "Print server properties" above.

  3. click on the "Drivers" tab at the top of the window "properties of the print server.

  4. choose the printer that you want to uninstall, and then click 'remove '.

  5. choose "Remove driver only.

  6. the next screen will give a warning, letting you know that the removal of the driver package will remove it from the system. Click 'Yes' to say are you sure you want to do.

  If documents are stuck in the spooler to print, you see an error, cancel all documents waiting in the print queue or try restart the spooler to print, and then try to delete the driver from 'Print server properties' again. If she will not always remove the sachet, restart the computer and the printer should correct this error "in use" and allow the driver to be removed.

  • If him you continue to get an "in use" message followed the steps in the document here. The specified printer driver is currently in use

  Once the driver is then deleted, open start > all programs > HP folder > folder printer > HP Setup and software (or the icon of the printer).  The installation screen and the software opens and you can click on connect a new printer.

  Once you have added the HP driver, try to print a label again and let me know the result. In addition, you may need to change ' borderless printing: Print with border ' borderless Print.

  Let me know how it goes.

• Photosmart HP 6520: Printer work and print a blank page, on its own without input from any computer or device.

  I use a configuration of Photosmart Printer series 6520 linked to a Comcast Cable modem router /wifi.  I use WPA2 security with a long password. (I also tried setting by using the system of the WPS - with changes in symptoms). With this router, the wifi connection I share with

  1. MacbookPro computer
  2. iPhone 6SPlus
  3. 12.9 inches iPad Pro

  The symptoms are:

  At random times during the day or night, you can hear computer works as if someone sent a print job.

  1. You go to the printer, and the front panel display is on.
  2. There is an empty of leaves paper ejected from the printer.

  In the night when in bed and all devices are disabled except router and of course the printer, I can hear the printer works and then I wake up the next morning and there is a blank sheet of paper in the output tray.  I'm off to put the paper in the paper tray.

  I keep the printer on 24 hours a day, because as ink jet printer inks tend to dry out the exposed to natural air. And HP recommends keep printer to prevent dry ink clogging in the head. I understand everything power is suspended unless the circuit warming (and it appeared to work that way until quite recently).

  Although it made no difference, I just update the HP Update version 5 driver sent from Apple.  It turns out that it is the wasted effort, and I lost my custom configurations because the driver for my printer has not been updated for at least two years. He always uses the version 4.2.5 of the driver. (El Capitan is X.11.6 with the latest security updates).

  Printer works fine otherwise.  Suggestions?

  Yes, it made no difference. The façade has finally exploded but ocassion, it still ejects a sheet or two of paper.  Guess it's irreparable. I can live with. Works fine in the case.  Just close it as insoluble.

• All-in-one Photosmart HP 6520 printing envelopes

  How to print envelopes?  I have a laptop with Windows 7 wireless.  I understand how to do to load the envelope but don't control where the address is printed.  I need to know where and how to type the address.  I use Open Office that I am not very familiar with, even with the printer.  Shot of a business letter has made the choice of printing the address of the body of the letter automatically?  But if I write an informal letter without an address where should I type?  6520 it prints from the front or the back of the printer? It feels like the printer needs instructions, but I don't know where they should come from.  Please help me.

  Hello

  I normally use Microsoft Word to print envelopes, very simple. You can also use OpenOffice Writer to do the same thing. Please follow the instructions below:
